According to the National Restaurant Association (NRA), 450,000 jobs are expected to be added this summer, which is a 4.6 percent increase from the March 2012 employment level. This year’s summer employment rates are projected to be the highest since 1993, with the restaurant industry being the second largest private sector employer and creator of jobs.
